The Key's in the Mailbox

Capo 1 G C D (Dm)


Oh jealous me and careless you

The odds were just too great...

I couldn't take those lonely nights

You made me sit and wait...


I'd thought I'd seen the last of you

When you walked...out of site

Instead I see you in my dreams each night


So the key's in the mailbox, come on in

I'm sitting here wishin' dear, I'd have your love again

I'll never even ask you...where you've been

The keys in the mailbox, come on in


[MUSIC]


I said I'd rather be alone

Than share your company

I said don't come around at all

If you want more than me

But sitting here alone I can't deny the flame that burns

I'd gladly take you back on any terms


So the key's in the mailbox, come on in

I'm sitting here wishin' dear, I'd have your love again

I'll never even ask you where you've been

The keys in the mailbox, come on in

Working with XML in C# Deserializing Dynamic Objects

                 XDocument doc = XDocument.Parse(xml);

                string jsonText = JsonConvert.SerializeXNode(doc);
                dynamic dyn = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<ExpandoObject>(jsonText);                string qticomment = dyn.root.qticomment;
                string duration = dyn.root.duration;You just look at the structure of the XML and dot down the properties to get the values.If you come to an array:                List<dynamic> qtimetadata = dyn.root.itemmetadata.qtimetadata.qtimetadatafield;
                foreach (dynamic metadata in qtimetadata)
                {
                    if (metadata.fieldlabel == "ILIAS_VERSION")
                    {
                        ILIAS_VERSION = metadata.fieldentry;

Shortages on Fertilizer, Herbicides, Pesticides

 Fertilizer

"Steady rain the last several weeks as well as fertilizer shortages have been forcing QCA farmers to delay planting crops."
https://www.kwqc.com/2022/05/04/constant-rain-fertilizer-shortages-prevent-qca-farmers-planting-crops/


"Fertilizer shortages are real now because Russia is a big exporter of fertilizer. Even though fertilizer is not sanctioned, less fertilizer is coming out of Russia,"
https://www.foxnews.com/media/biden-official-says-food-shortages-will-push-farmers-green-energy-never-let-crisis-go-waste

"Farmers are seeing a fertilizer shortage. Combined with high water and fuel prices, costs are set to soar as food becomes less available."
https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2022/03/15/fertilizer-shortages-indicate-an-even-bigger-crisis-is-looming-n2604553

"railroad-mandated shipping reductions would result in nitrogen fertilizer shipment delays during the spring application season and that it would be unable to accept new rail sales involving Union Pacific for the foreseeable future."

"As we move fully into spring, the high price of fertilizer is impacting everyone from home gardeners to landscapers and farmers."
https://news.yahoo.com/fertilizer-shortages-leading-massive-price-104838040.html

"Fertilizer prices have tripled from where they were in 2021 and it’s forcing Mid-Michigan farmers to change how they grow their crops."

Dealing with fertilizer costs and shortages: “No Silver Bullets”

Herbicide

"The two main active ingredients that we’re hearing about right now are glyphosate (Roundup, others) and glufosinate (Liberty, others), for which prices have increased substantially."
https://extension.psu.edu/herbicide-shortages-alternative-burndown-strategies

" the herbicide shortage include a decline in number of laborers to unload tanker ships at gulf ports, lack of truck transportation from the ports to get the ingredients to U.S. formulation plants or formulated products to the retailers, reduced supplies of some of the inert ingredients of the formulation, shortages of materials to make containers and packaging, and Hurricane Ida that damaged a glyphosate production plant in Luling, LA."
https://www.croplife.com/crop-inputs/herbicides/herbicide-shortage-how-to-plan-for-the-2022-growing-season/

"2022 could be a difficult year if many crop production and protection chemicals are limited. Herbicide shortages could impact weed control success in the coming growing season…and beyond. Weeds that are not controlled in 2022 will set seed that will cause problems in the future."
https://plant-pest-advisory.rutgers.edu/tips-in-preparation-of-herbicide-shortages-in-2022/

"As emphasized during the Crop Advantage Series presentations and other ISU extension meetings across Iowa in January/February, two key herbicides, glyphosate and glufosinate, are in short supply to many of the corn and soybean producers."
https://www.farmprogress.com/herbicide/weed-control-recommendations-2022-coping-herbicide-shortage

Pesticide

"One such event occurred in mid-September, which could affect 2022 glyphosate production, Taylor noted. New environmental requirements from the Chinese government have forced the Yunnan Province to drop its yellow phosphorus production to 10% of its normal capacity through December. The Yunnan Province can account for anywhere from 40% to 45% of China's yellow phosphorus production, which goes into finished phosphates and glyphosate production, Taylor said."

“Take those two weather related incidents and then throw in all of the challenges with arrival of port containers, all of the materials we are purchasing from overseas, the trucker shortages, all of those things we know are going to challenge farmers in terms of access and pricing for products this year.”
